Assembling a Fuchs
Step 1: Start by gluing the wheels in place. Take your time and try to make sure each wheel is straight and level – this is easier than it looks, because the axle is shaped to fit the recess in the wheels to help with stability and correct alignment. Below: The 6 wheels attached correctly.

Step 2: Glue the machine-gun into the mounting hole in front of the hatch. MG's are quite fragile, so some modellers paint them separately before attaching them. Below: The AA machine-gun correctly positioned. Optional: If you choose to mount your Unit's Milan missile launcher on one of your Fuchs, it should be glued directly in front of the upper hatch.

A Panzeraufklärungs Zug may remove Milan missile teams before the game, mounting a Milan missile on one of the Unit’s Fuchs for each team removed.
